Benue Govt approves construction of 4 dumpsites
The Benue Government has approved the construction of four additional refuse dumpsites across the state in order to ease evacuation of wastes being generated daily.
The General Manager, Benue State Environmental Sanitation Agency (BENSESA), Mr Andrew Chile, stated this in an interview with newsmen in Makurdi.
According to Chile, the sites will be located at Gboko Road, Naka Road, Aliade Road and North Bank.
He said that the inability of the Agency to evacuate refuse because of absence of dumpsites would now be a thing of the past.
The general manager assured residents that the designated dumpsites would be far from residential houses to avoid inhaling bad odour and contamination of ground water.
